Ornette Coleman...


...turned 75 today.

Listening one of my favourite of his recordings "Sound Museum" and "Song X"(with Pat Metheny) I join everyone who has for him the best wishes on his anniversary!

Tomorrow Is The Question! has been in my regular rotation for past two months. What a well balanced and extremely approachable work. If only I had heard that one years ago, I'd be much further along. It has been only over the past year that I have truly gotten Ornette. I echo the sentiments above, his music is amazing and stands apart.
Warrenh,
Glad to hear you are enjoying it too. Well, you already have one of two that I'd recommend, TSOJTC. The other would be something quite a bit different, 1960 Free Jazz (A Collective Improvisation). I expect to grab a copy of This Is Our Music soon.
Happy listening. I'd welcome suggestions too.
